Bill Summary

CONCERNING CREATING A BEHAVIORAL HEALTH FIRST AID TRAINING PROGRAM IN THE OFFICE OF SUICIDE PREVENTION, AND, IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, MAKING AN APPROPRIATION.

AI Summary

This bill creates a Behavioral Health First Aid Training Program in the Office of Suicide Prevention within the Department of Public Health and Environment. The program aims to improve community mental health and well-being by training candidates, such as educators, community organization staff, and first responders, to recognize signs of mental illness and substance use, respond appropriately, and teach adults and teens how to identify and assist those struggling with mental health or substance use challenges. The bill appropriates $250,000 annually from the General Fund to the Department to administer the program and requires the Office to evaluate its effectiveness and report on it. The program is scheduled for review and potential repeal in 2033.
